predict_lfmm: Predict polygenic scores from latent factor models

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) Examples

View source: R/lfmm.R

Description

This function computes polygenic risk scores from the estimates of latent factor models. It uses the indirect' effect sizes for the regression of X (a single phenotype) on the matrix Y, for predicting phenotypic values for new genotype data.

Usage

1
predict_lfmm(Y, X, lfmm.object, fdr.level = 0.1, newdata = NULL)

Arguments

Y

a response variable matrix with n rows and p columns, typically containing genotypes. Each column is a response variable (numeric).

X

an explanatory variable with n rows and d = 1 column (numeric) representing a phenotype with zero mean across the sample.

lfmm.object

an object of class lfmm returned by the lfmm_lasso or lfmm_ridge function, computed for X and Y.

fdr.level

a numeric value for the FDR level in the lfmm test used to define candidate variables for predicting new phenotypes.

newdata

a matrix with n rows and p' columns, and similar to Y, on which predictions of X will be based. If NULL, Y is used as new data.

Details

The response variable matrix Y and the explanatory variable are centered.

Value

a list with the following attributes:
